“Diesen Kuss” (2010) Photographic Portrait of Ludwig van Beethoven. The mask you see in the image was advertised as a plaster replica of the actual life mask of the German composer Beethoven, and it was purchased on eBay.Com. This digital photograph was presented as a gift to the Uptown Dallas Art Collective by Candace Elizabeth Brooks (a.k.a. Ariadne Phoenix Levinson) on Friday April 10, 2015.
